A devil in a midnight mass He prayed behind stained glass A memory of Sunday class Resurrected from the past Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don't work no more Footsteps down the hallway floor Getting closer to my door I was alive but now I'm singin' Silent nights, for the rest of my life Silent nights, for the rest of my life Violent knight cutting into your life (forgive me father) Won't make it right Silent nights, for the rest of my life Silent knight cutting into the edge of your knife Your guilty! A devil in a midnight mass Killed the boy inside the man The holy water in his hands Can never wash away his sins Hold your breath and count to four Pinky swears don't work no more Put my trust in god that day Not the man that taught his way I was alive but now I'm singin' Silent nights, for the rest of my life Silent nights, for the rest of my life Violent knight cutting into your life (forgive me father) Won't make it right Silent nights, for the rest of my life Silent knight cutting into the edge of your knife your guilty! (Repeat x6) Whisper, whisper, don't make a sound Your bed is made it's in the ground
